Description
Steverino was indeed among the "who's-who in comedy," having piloted the original late-night talk show TONIGHT! from 1953 to 1956. Allen was involved in what was described as a minor auto accident in 2000, after which he continued on to his son's home. Shortly after his arrival he excused himself and adjourned to the restroom, but checking on him after he did not return, his son found him unconscious and unresponsive; Steve Allen died some forty minutes after the accident. We offer the Los Angeles County Coroner's highly detailed 32 page autopsy report, as well as his death certificate.
